What needs to change to make the company culture better?

They need to shut down they don't know how to run a bussiness

Review from Operations Dept

It all comes down to management. Just because numbers are good doesnt mean the branch environment Is good. Everyone is unhappy. Employees should be taken care of not treated disrespectfully. At my branch managers calls us "the help." They even want to make comment about ppl of color and LGBT com.

There is a push to support certain groups while silencing those who do not fit in a certain group. Culture would be infinitely better if ALL people and views could be shared openly without fear of retaliation.

It is commonly known in organizational theory that it is the leader who sets the “tone and culture” of a group

Review from Operations Dept

The fact that they want perfect qc scores in less than a year. If you don't cut the mustard by then you're out.
